In short: Lovely sociable, well-organised 10k
In full: First run after VLM, and the change from elbow barging to friendly, relaxed enjoyable running was welcome! Lovely location, well organised parking, registration and start. Nice route, well marshalled by the Scouts with welcome vocal support. Finish good and I ditched the scientific recovery drink for a welcome cup of tea and bacon bap. Recommend to everyone in the area

In short: Great race.....well done
In full: Good race this. Nice and welcoming, fair mix of abilities, not half as flat as I expected and the tea and mars were a great touch.

One minor gripe was the finish. Not clear on where it was and had to slalom bollards slowing down.

Even the post race tip of the Ship Inn in Pointon worked out a treat!!!

Well done all

In short: Really enjoyed it.
In full: Almost traffic-free, with mars bar and hot drink at the end. Arrived in plenty of time to find plenty of parking. Some uphills, but nothing challenging- slight inclines if anything. Marked in kilometres (albeit with Miles printed below the number, but we were warned about that in advance.) A thoroughly enjoyable race that even the wind couldn't spoil. And beating my PB by a minute could only have helped.
